Funny you should do this today. Just last night, I was looking at a Vera Bradley handbag that I own and thinking that maybe the color palette, royal and navy with some white and yellow might work for me. I am in a bit of a transition, I stopped coloring my hair about 18 months ago. The grey pattern resembles my mother's (and grandmother) which means I will eventually have white in the front and more grey at the back. Since black looks like death on Mom, I am thinking I will need to start working toward a new color palette for my clothes. I just haven't decided which way to go yet. I found your blog about 2 weeks ago and am almost through all of your old posts. You have given me many ideas and lots of food for thought. Thank you.

I love how you have created outfits that are seasonless! I love this tote, but would probably make the mistake of pigeon holing into only using in Fall, since it's in 'earth tones'. I enjoy the outfits you've chosen…because they make being able to carry a tote in one palette many more months of the year…which also brings the 'cost per wear/use' down as the wearer will be able to use the bag more. Well done!

I don't know how you do it – pulling an outfit together so beautifully. As always every combination is a winner. You make it look easy but I don't know how to start to arrive at such inspiring combinations.

I agree with you on the first outfit, and always wondered how you feel about this current trend of pattern mixing. I know it has been done successfully in men's wear forever, maybe because the patterns and colors are not bold. But what is being done recently looks always messy and a bit clownish to me. The woven flats in the second outfit make me swoon. Just lovely.
